I printed a pdf file from Band in a Box using primopdf, which is free and when you install it is an option for a printer but it does a pdf file instead. Took a few seconds. Hooked up the Kobo via usb and dragged the file to the device once it was recognized. The whole thing can be done in a few seconds, less than 30 anyway. Shows up fine but you have to imagine an 8 1/2 x 11 file being displayed 5? inch by 4 inch screen. It's small. Most songs I know well enough that put on the piano stand I'm ok with it. Pushing the button to get page 2 is a pain.

If you have good eyesight and don't mind fiddling with it to make it smaller so it fits on a page might be ok. The resolution is amazing. They have done a good job displaying pdf files.

I'm somewhat addicted to the device, but I am borrowing library titles and buying a couple of books a week. I can't see using it at home and I have not played elsewhere for 6 months due to my health..
